2019 Bentleys to Get Anniversary Treatment

In celebration of its 100th anniversary, Volkswagen AG’s Bentley unit says all the vehicles it produces next year will include special badging and other nostalgic features.

Centenary Gold coloring will be used throughout the interior and exterior. The traditional Bentley badge also will add 1919 and 2019 to either side of large B insignia.

Bentley also is planning a special-edition version of the Mulsanne, with production limited to 100 copies. A 66-lb commemorative anniversary book also is in the works.

W.O. Bentley formed the company in 1919. The luxury marque’s first model was delivered two years later, introducing the company’s distinctive grille and the Flying B insignia.
